"As soon as I cooked the meal, the Taoist friend came, which can be said to be fateful." Song You smiled and said, "Just eat together." ”

"Ouch! The poor road couldn't have come at a better time! Wen Pingzi suddenly looked embarrassed and ashamed, "It's just that the poor road came from the outside of the city, and he was eager to see him, and he forgot the time for a while." ”

"This is a mistake, and the Taoist friend came at the right time." Song You smiled slightly, but he thought it was funny.

Along the way, I have also been to several palaces and temples in various places to visit, often entertained by other local Taoist chiefs, at first I was not used to it, and slowly it became natural, today it is my turn to entertain other Taoist chiefs.

"This morning, I wandered around Yangdu with Tong'er, and bought a few new dishes that are not easy to see in Changjing, including a carrot, and I wanted to use it to stew a pot of beef in Xia to comfort the Five Organs Temple. Unexpectedly, the beef that can be easily bought on the streets of Yangdu on weekdays is not available today. Song You said, "It turns out that Daoyou is coming." ”

"Respect the superior, how dare you ...... the poor road"

"It's just a group of people in the mountains."

"That poor road has no choice but to be respectful, it is better to obey his fate."

Two Taoists walked into the hall one after the other.

The little girl, dressed in tricolored clothes and holding a large basin of white soup in her hands, walked slowly and put it on tiptoe on the table.

There are already a few dishes on the table.

The little girl couldn't see any expression on her face, she only felt serious, and when she turned around, she ran out again, bringing the dishes and chopsticks.

"This is the Sanhua Niang."

"Poor Dao knows." Wen Pingzi hurriedly said, "Previously, Poor Dao was working for the national teacher in Changjing Juxian Mansion, and I had seen Zunjia from afar, and I had also seen Sanhua Niangniang. ”

"I see."

"I take the liberty to visit, and I ask for forgiveness."

"Don't talk about that, the visitors are guests, just taste the craftsmanship below. Don't call it anything, just call a Taoist friend. Song You paused for a moment to distribute dishes and chopsticks to him, "Speaking of which, we have also heard of the name of Taoist friends before. ”

"Oh?"

Wen Pingzi held the dishes and chopsticks, but he was embarrassed to move.

"Lejun Yinhua, the god of pleasure in Yushan." Song You smiled and said to him, "Don't be restrained. ”

"Shan Shan, ......"

Wen Pingzi suddenly realized.

"We've been all the way. I heard that there were five earth gods around Yangzhou, so I went to visit them one by one. Song You said and moved his chopsticks first.

I first tasted the stir-fried shredded potatoes, and then tasted the pork ribs stewed with potatoes.

I didn't expect that although this potato is small, it tastes very good. The potatoes were crispy and refreshing, and the potatoes in the ribs were soft enough, which soon brought Song You a familiar feeling.

"I see."

Wen Pingzi also tentatively followed the vegetables, and his cloudy old eyes also lit up, and then he also adhered to etiquette, sighed and said to him: "Before leaving, the national teacher ordered that poor Dao come to Yangzhou to find out whether the hedonistic god of Le County is honest, if not, he will be punished, and let Poor Dao come to kill the god of bliss in Yangdu, and Poor Dao will go to Le County first." ”

"Do you want food?" The little girl stared at Song You, and then turned her head to look at Wen Pingzi, "Old Taoist, do you want to eat?" ”

"Let's ask Sanhua Niangniang to serve us a bowl." Song You said.

"Thank you, Sanhua Niang." Wen Pingzi also said respectfully.

"Okay!"

The little girl took the two bowls, slipped down from the high bench, and fell to the ground, where she ran to the stove to serve her meal.

Two bowls of rice were quickly served.

"Thank you, Sanhua Niang."

"You're welcome!"

Most of the oat potatoes seen in Yangdu recently are white, and after cooking, they will be slightly green, and the steamed rice is already soft, and the diced oat potatoes add a lot of color.

Song You sandwiched the pork ribs, with a rich soup, and put them on the rice, and the rice was also dyed, mixed with a bite, the soft rice and the sweet diced oats, plus the pork ribs soup, the rich fragrance and familiar taste, there is a feeling of nothing else in this life.

"When Poor Dao first arrived in Lejun Mountain, I heard that although the god of pleasure was evil, he never hurt people's lives, especially in recent years, for some reason, but he still had some restraint, but he saw that he still stayed in Xushan, and refused to leave after being deposed, so he fought with him." Wen Pingzi paused his chopsticks and said to him, "That god of pleasure really has some skills, a little more powerful than Poor Dao thought." ”

"These earth gods are not simple." Song You echoed.

"yes......"

Wen Pingzi also nodded, and said seriously: "It should be that after the god of pleasure was sealed in the mountain, Qingyun Palace sent a Taoist friend to make a temple blessing for him for a year. In that year, the Taoist friend often studied the Taoist scriptures in the temple, and never slackened in the morning and evening classes, and the earth god was afraid of being lonely in the mountains, so he often secretly came to listen to him chanting the scriptures, and he was under the influence of his ears and eyes...... Interestingly, the people who recite the Taoist scriptures every day do not cultivate mana, but the wild gods who eavesdrop on them benefit a lot. ”

"It's really interesting." Song You nodded and asked, "How did Daoyou defeat it in the end?" ”

“……”

Wen Pingzi just took advantage of the gap and also learned from Song You, sandwiched a piece of pork ribs to eat, only to feel that the pork ribs were full of soup, rustling and fragrant, and had the taste of spices, which was a delicacy he had never tasted.

Taste it twice, the more you taste, the more fragrant it is.

It's just that before he had time to marvel, Song You asked again, so he hurriedly put down the chopsticks and quickened the chewing action, swallowed it, and then sighed.

"Alas, it's not a secret, when Poor Dao invited the gods of the Heavenly Palace Doubu to possess him, although his ability was better than that of the god of pleasure, I am afraid that he would also suffer some injuries." Wen Pingzi narrowed his eyes as he spoke, as if he was also caught up in the memories of that night, but he said it in a light tone, "However, at the last moment, a Taoist friend came from the mountain, and it was the Taoist friend of the Qingyun Palace. ”

"Daoyou said slowly, eat first, don't be in a hurry." Song You also came to be interested.

"As soon as the god of pleasure saw that fellow Taoist, he was stunned, and after a few words, he sighed, and then stopped resisting, saying Let me fall." Wen Pingzi said, "Poor Dao thought that his original sin would not die, and when he saw that he was still saved, he was ready to let him go." It's a pity that the poor Dao is willing to let go, but the priest who was invited to the lower realm by the poor Dao is unwilling, and he will be beaten so that his soul flies out, and his physical vitality is cut off. ”

"That's ......"

Song You couldn't help but widen his eyes and sigh a little.

It seems that at the foot of the mountain, two creatures who should have had nothing to do with each other came to the foot of the mountain and got along in the temple for a year, and the friendship was not fake.

Immediately, Song You took a bite of food, but asked again: "Then who is the woodcutter you met below?" ”

"Daoyou actually met him too?"

"Naturally, I met."

"It's the woodcutter who often goes up the mountain to chop wood. He was always blessed by the god of pleasure, but he had just died of illness in those days, and he was lonely, and he didn't even have a person to collect the body. Wen Pingzi said, "Poor Dao remembered that it was really not easy for him to practice, so he persuaded him to repent and reform himself, and asked him to borrow the woodcutter's body temporarily, wishing him another chance." Later, Poor Dao secretly guarded in Yushan for half a year, and saw that he only chopped firewood and collected firewood every day, and only studied Taoist scriptures and poems after returning home, and the evil spirit on his body gradually dissipated cleanly, so he was no longer embarrassed for him. ”

"Fellow Daoists are merciful."

Song You said with a smile.

The little girl who had been eating and was silent next to her was stunned when she heard this, and raised her head to stare at them.

Song You just smiled and didn't say anything-

The woodcutter has no culture, and he usually goes up the mountain to chop wood, but also to make a living, even if he listens to the Taoist chief of Qingyun Palace and recites poetry and scriptures for a year, how can he remember so much?

There is a mountain spring flowing down the mountain, which is clear and delicious, and where can it be said that you can go to the temple under the mountain to ask for water to drink?

It's just that Song You also inquired about this god of pleasure before going to Yushan, and knew that although he made mistakes, he did not devour living people and ask for human sacrifices like the god of comfort. When I arrived at Yushan, I saw the woodcutter, and I also saw a clean and hedonistic god.

So he went up the mountain and found that the winner of the original battle was indeed Wen Pingzi, and went down the mountain to test the words, and finally left.

It's not that he has to let him go, it's just that the national teacher originally asked Wen Pingzi to deal with the god of pleasure, and since Wen Pingzi chose to let him go, there is no need for Song You to hold on to it.

"Since Daoyou met him and saw the mystery, why did you let him go?" Wen Pingzi asked.

The girl also turned her head and stared at her Taoist priest.

Song You smiled slightly, and told him about the encounter with the woodcutter that day, the conversation, the details he discovered, the woodcutter's eyebrows and eyes, his concealment and acting skills, Wen Pingzi was also interesting to listen to.

It's so wonderful, I can't help but look up and laugh.

The natural freedom of a monastic is fully revealed.

The two of them each ate two large bowls of rice, and the dishes that Sanhua Niangniang said would take two days to eat were eaten in one meal. Even when Song You saw this, he felt a sense of accomplishment.

Immediately, Song You filled a bowl of fish soup.

The crucian carp is three fingers wide, not too small, fried and then boiled and added fried egg, white radish and tofu, put it into a bowl, the milk is as white, just looking at it feels delicious.

also served a bowl to Wen Pingzi.

"Thank you, ...... Daoyou"

Wen Pingzi was very satisfied, just looking at this bowl of snow-white soup, as well as the translucent half-moon radish slices and the same snow-white small square tofu, he couldn't help but be greedy, so he had to thank him.

So while holding the soup bowl and feeling the warm temperature, he said to Song You: "Don't hide it, Poor Dao came this time to ask Taoist friends for help." ”

"But the god of bliss?"

"Exactly ......"

Wen Pingzi couldn't help but feel a little ashamed when he spoke.

"It's strange to say that the poor Dao really shouldn't stay in that mountain for half a year. I stayed in Gushan for half a year, and I came to Yangdu half a year late. The god of bliss already has a good ability to hide, if he is caught off guard, maybe he is not as invincible as the god of pleasure, but in the past six months, after he was deposed, he quickly guessed his ending and was prepared. With one or two face-to-face meetings with Poor Dao, I guessed that he probably used all the incense power to cultivate the hidden supernatural power he had comprehended in Yangdu, and the supernatural power became more and more profound, so Poor Dao had no way to deal with him in the past year. ”

"That's ......"

Song You also fell into thought when he heard this.

While thinking about it, I drank the fish soup with a bowl, and I felt that my lips and teeth were fragrant, and it was extremely delicious.
